Professor Tomas Moreau was a mage-scientist who specialized in genetics, in particular, researching witcher mutations.

Biography[]

Around 1087, he was saved from monsters thanks to a witcher. However, the witcher enacted the Law of Surprise, resulting in Tomas' payment being that of his son, Jerome. Feeling he'd been unfairly relinquished of any say into his son's fate, Tomas vowed to learn how to reverse the mutation process, all in the hopes his son could one day know what it'd be like to be a father.

So in 1102, he began to research into it by using a secret lab in the Valley of the nine of Toussaint. He performed many trials and errors and, by 1121, felt confident he had enough to go on and set a trap to lure his son to the area. When Jerome learned though that his father was behind the contract he took, he became enraged, clearly not having fond of memories of his father, and refused to undergo the experiments. Tomas, not one to take no for an answer, simply paralyzed his son instead and stuck in a room only accessible by a portal in hopes he'd come around.

However, Tomas' research and experiments proved all for naught. Instead of reversing the witcher mutations, he accidentally enhanced them instead. This went on for some time before he finally gave up, realizing he'd failed to do what he'd intended and finally resigned to the fact that his son was to be a witcher. He then returned to Lydia and, sometime later, died and was buried in Orlémurs Cemetery.

  • The epitaph on his grave reads: "Tomas Moreau, professor. Ellas k'havani allder aen Dol Naev'de, ellas allder n'corrason. Glorsann a'Aelirenn." With the latter translating to "Salvation lies not in Dol Naev'de, but in our hearts. Glory be to Aelirenn."
